Was it about . . . her?

[thecoolerloki]

Not... initially. It was supposed to be about our uncle.

[dothelokimotion]

Which one would that be?

[thecoolerloki]

Cul Borson? The Serpent and the God of Fear.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki shakes his head. ]

You have a far more extended family tree than I do.

[ he grimaces. ]

Or Odin hid and killed them all.

[thecoolerloki]

I realize this is extremely hypocritical and in poor taste, but... that may have been a good idea in Uncle Cul's case.

He's nearly or as powerful as the All-Father, even Thor could not defeat him without my help.

[dothelokimotion]

Definitely killed then.

What did he want?

[thecoolerloki]

Exiled is my best guess. Odin is... sentimental, in that way.

[Loki knows firsthand, as that is why he was allowed to live.]

For fear itself to rule over all. He aimed to destroy the Nine Realms with but a feeling.

But as his author, [he considers for a moment] I think he was lonely.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loneliness is a driving motivator. ]

Sometimes I wonder what it is about Asgard that makes us so . . .

[ he trails off, not even sure how to finish that. they were gods. untouched by time. living on the evenstar of the universe. and yet. ]

[thecoolerloki]

Weak? That is what I wrote into Cul, I mean. A weakness where he had none. A sense of humanity, some might call it.

[dothelokimotion]

Before, I would not have said that's much of a weakness we had but . . . [ he shrugs, looking a bit sheepish. ] . . . Self-reflection is difficult to navigate.

[thecoolerloki]

[he laughs] Especially with yourself, yes?

[dothelokimotion]

I'm not admitting to that.

[thecoolerloki]

No need.

His weakness was his first love. A girl with silky black hair and glowing green eyes who nursed him back to health when none would even look at him. He hated everyone, as was his nature, yet that memory haunted him still. Millennia had passed and he was no longer the boy she cared for. But. For a split second, he remembered her kindness and wished for it once more.

And that is when Thor was able to strike.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki squints at him. in judgement. ]

[thecoolerloki]

... What?

[dothelokimotion]

Really?

[thecoolerloki]

Really. That's the story I wrote.

[dothelokimotion]

Well. One can't argue with results.

[thecoolerloki]

You have something else to say, it's clear on your face.

[dothelokimotion]

A girl with black hair and green eyes?

[thecoolerloki]

I based her off Leah!

[dothelokimotion]

Do you only know one girl?

[thecoolerloki]

... I know Sif and the All-Mother.

[dothelokimotion]

[ hmm. ]

No Valkyries?
